The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) summoned four witnesses regarding the alleged corruption in PT Taspen (Persero) fictitious investment with the corporate suspect PT Insight Investments Management (IIM) today, July 29. One of them, Julius Sanjaya, who is the Director of Finance and Accounting for PT Sinarmas Sekuritas.

"The investigation was carried out at the KPK's Red and White building," said KPK spokesman Budi Prasetyo to reporters in a written statement, Tuesday, July 29.

Apart from Julius, investigators also summoned Subarno as an employee of PT IIM; Stephanus Adi Prasetyo who is the Head of the Institutional KB Valbury Sekuritas; and Sarifudin Sitorus as the Head of Finance & Treasury of PT. KB Valbury Sekuritas.

Based on the information obtained, Julius is currently undergoing examination at the anti-corruption commission office. He arrived for questioning at around 10.15 WIB.

"The KPK has scheduled an examination of the alleged corruption witness related to the investment activities of PT Taspen (Persero) for the PT IIM corporate suspect," Budi explained.

Julius Sanjaya is known to have been summoned by the KPK when investigators completed the files of the inactive President Director of PT Taspen, Antonius Nicholas Stephanus Kosasih and the President Director of PT Insight Investments Management, Ekiawan Heri Primaryanto on July 3, 2024, September 2, 2024, and November 28, 2024. At that time, he was questioned about the investment process carried out by PT Taspen and PT IIM.

Previously reported, the KPK developed allegations of corruption in PT Taspen's fictitious investment and as a result, PT Insight Investment Management was named a corporate suspect through a new investigation.

It has not been detailed about the role of PT IIM. However, this company together with Taspen are suspected of causing the state to lose up to Rp1 trillion due to fictitious investment.

This case began after the anti-corruption commission appointed the former Director of PT Taspen (Persero), Antonius N.S. Kosasih and former President Director of PT Insight Investment Management, Ekiawan Heri Primayanto regarding the alleged corruption of fictitious investments at the state-owned company.

At that time, PT Taspen (Persero) placed an investment of IDR 1 trillion in the RD I-Next G2 mutual fund managed by PT Insight Investment Management. The private company then spread it to a number of investments but not according to the rules.

In detail, Rp78 billion is managed by PT Insight Investment Management. Then, as much as Rp2.2 billion is managed by PT VSI; Rp102 million is managed by PT PS; Rp44 million goes to PT SM; and other parties affiliated with Kosasih and Ekiawan.
